Default Trailer Hitch Installed

Thought I would post a pic of the Hitch Doc installed. Also one of my saddle bag secure for the rear post only. Welded a 5/16 cap nut to a plate sheared to the shape of the rear bracket and pop rivet it on.

Nice looking Hitch.....I'm using the same setup.
Haven't gone the welded nut way yet, but I do bolt/nut up one of the two mounts. Leave the HD clip in the other.
I've seen a few bags go bouncing down the road.....Not mine.
Not something to laugh about, but it sure is funny to see.

Thank You. please post an updated pic of the new glide when you get a chance.
I have been there done that with the quick release and bag.
Here is a pick of where I mounted the six pin receptacle for the trailer wireing. Trailer is a Tailwind with it's own battery and relays.
